I just wanted to publicly thank Mol Plastic Modelbouw and J.W. for their continued support of our site. They renewed their advertising for another 3 months!
They have also offered to co-contribute the prize for the UOM award. This will mean users in Europe will have an easier time taking advantage of a prize award. You don't get both though! You have to choose.

Ken, For our advertisers sakes I don't want to do that. Simply because a lot of people have pop-up blockers now and some of them probably don't even realize that this is why they click on some links nothing happens because the new window is being blocked.

Ahh haa! I knew there was something to it! I'm just addicted to new windows for everything I view. I even wished that member's "my gallery" buttons opened new windows.
Darn pop-up blockers!

I know AOL 9.0 lets you to designate site to allow pop ups (like this one). If I click on a site that I have not allowed pop ups, I get a plonk noise (same sound when it blocks a pop up). If that happens, I just re-click on the link and it'll open right up.
Pop ups are annoying though. I can't believe Fine Scale Modeler has that stupid pop up on their home page advertising their susbscription. Heck I have a subscription too.
